Our Nollywood producers just have a penchant for taking advantage of any scenario.
Barely
months after the ALUU4 were killed, Nollywood producers released a
movie depicting how they died, the movie producers were heavily
chastised for being insensitive to the plights of the parents of the
boys who died.
From the rise in the sale
of Blackberry phones, we had Blackberry Babes, from the unfortunate
lynching of 4 University of Port Harcourt students in October 2012 –
Aluu4, a movie called “The Four Boys” was produced.
With the abduction of school girls in the Chibok area of Borno state, there have been at least two movies released.
Now
they’re at it again, Nollywood producers have gone ahead to release a
movie on the kidnapped schoolgirls who were taken from Chibok, Borno
state: One is titled – The Missing School Girls…There is God O and
another – Lost Students (Zero Squad) Part 1 & 2.
Hollywood
is fond of also making movies centered around real stories, but we
haven’t heard any report that a movie on the Malaysian airline that
crashed is ongoing.
For an industry that
wants to compete with the likes of Bollywood and Hollywood, this is not a
good way to go about movie production as even the girls the movie is
about are yet to be rescued.
What are your thoughts on these movies?
